remember trump says hire americans and his own rich club refuses too. They hire and have asked for more waivers as a percentage of workers for undocumented workers to get documents than probably any top end resort in the USA... He just does not want to hire americans. and never has wanted too.

where is the media showing what a low life liar he is.... Over such a major incident... fake news

this is not some minor lie, this is a whopper... I believe for not correcting it he should be impeached... again he is enabling hate, was it the next day a right wing waco tried to blow up and kill with a McVeigh type bomb in McVeigh and trumps honor....

“You had a group on the other side that came charging in without a permit, and they were very, very violent. . . . You had a lot of people in that [white nationalist] group that were there to innocently protest and very legally protest, because you know — I don’t know if you know — they had a permit. The other group didn’t have a permit.”
— President Trump, remarks during a news conference on infrastructure, Aug. 15, 2017

In blaming both sides for the violence in Charlottesville that left one person dead, President Trump twice asserted that the people protesting white supremacists and neo-Nazis lacked a permit, unlike the groups that gathered to protest the possible removal of a statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee.

But that’s turned out to be false, according to documents and interviews obtained by our Washington Post colleague Justin Wm. Moyer.

The Facts

Walt Heinecke, a professor at the University of Virginia, told Moyer that he received a “special events certificate of approval” for events at McGuffey Park and Justice Park — sites blocks from Emancipation Park, where white nationalists had a permit for a Saturday rally. A car allegedly driven by James Alex Fields Jr. rammed into counterprotesters, killing a 32-year-old woman, on Fourth Street, which runs adjacent to Justice Park.

The document is below, with Heinecke’s address and cellphone number removed.

'YOU'RE SPREADING A LIE' Donald Trump quotes a FAKE story claiming US General Pershing ‘executed Muslim terrorists with pigs’ blood-soaked bullets’ in wake of Barcelona attack
President Trump made reference to the mythical story in the wake of the Barcelona terror attack
By Gemma Mullin

Quote:

DONALD Trump quoted a FAKE story of a US general who “executed Muslim terrorists with pigs’ blood-soaked bullets” after the Barcelona bloodbath.

The US President tweeted a message of support for the victims of the atrocity, saying he “condemns the terror attack” and “will do whatever is necessary to help”.

so pathetic and notice the trolls photoshop pictures to lie about turnout. what a party of psychopathic liars.
trump claims there were 15,000 at the rally and it appears just a few thousand. What a nazi liar. Again he and right wingers have no sahame. Born to lie.

he in the video even says I wish the cameras could show the audience, well I bet the only reason they couldn't is because he contractually made them fixed cameras.

Check out the photos and video of Donald Trump's pathetically small crowd in Phoenix_________________when good people stay silent the right wing are the only ones heard.

The Arizona Republican Party wants you to know that despite the spectacle of Donald Trump jetting into Phoenix to defend Confederate monuments (and a few other things), the party is super-duper committed to diversity. Sort of. But since they couldn't find many pictures of Arizona Republicans who are not lily white and continually pissed off, they had to improvise when it came time to find pictures of such diversity for their website.

They improvised a little too hard, however, when they cut-and-pasted a publicity photo for a 1994 sitcom to depict their "Asian American" support.

The cast photograph of “All-American Girl” is prominently featured on the Arizona Republican Party’s official website with the caption “Asian Americans,” and sits on a page declaring that the political party will never “demand special rights for certain races, push policies that favor members of one group over another, or single out certain ethnic or social groups with the promise of special favors or political privileges.”
The star of All-American Girl was none other than actress and comedian Margaret Cho, whose disgust and distain for Republicans has been incandescent over this last decade. Not only does she not support the Arizona Republican Party, she responded by politely suggesting the party deserves "a dodgeball to the face."

The party has now deleted the page.

Four months into his campaign for president of the United States, Donald Trump signed a “letter of intent” to pursue a Trump Tower-style building development in Moscow, according to a statement from the then-Trump Organization Chief Counsel Michael Cohen.

The involvement of then-candidate Trump in a proposed Russian development deal contradicts repeated statements Trump made during the campaign, including telling ABC News Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos in July 2016 that his business had “no relationship to Russia whatsoever.”

The disclosure from Cohen, who has described himself as Trump’s personal lawyer, came as Cohen’s attorney gave congressional investigators scores of documents and emails from the campaign, including several pertaining to the Moscow development idea.

“Certain documents in the production reference a proposal for ‘Trump Tower Moscow,’ which contemplated a private real estate development in Russia,” Cohen’s statement says. “The decision to pursue the proposal initially, and later to abandon it, was unrelated to the Donald J. Trump for President Campaign.”

In a separate statement texted to ABC News, Cohen added that “the Trump Moscow proposal was simply one of many development opportunities that the Trump Organization considered and ultimately rejected.”

Cohen specifically says in his statement that Trump was told three times about the Moscow proposal.

“To the best of my knowledge, Mr. Trump was never in contact with anyone about this proposal other than me on three occasions, including signing a non-binding letter of intent in 2015,” his statement says.

Cohen also makes clear that he himself engaged in communication directly with the Kremlin about the proposal during the ongoing 2016 presidential campaign. His statement says he wrote to the press secretary for Russian President Vladimir Putin at the request of Felix Sater, a frequent Trump Organization associate who had proposed the Trump Moscow development.

“In mid-January 2016, Mr. Sater suggested that I send an email to Mr. Dmitry Peskov, the Press Secretary for the President of Russia, since the proposal would require approvals within the Russian government that had not been issued,” Cohen’s statement says. “Those permissions were never provided. I decided to abandon the proposal less than two weeks later for business reasons and do not recall any response to my email, nor any other contacts by me with Mr. Peskov or other Russian government officials about the proposal.”

The Trump Moscow development proposal, which was first reported Monday by The Washington Post, provides a new look at the relationship between the president’s real estate firm and Sater, a convicted felon who served a year in New York state prison for stabbing a man during a bar fight.

Sater is a controversial figure who served for many years as a federal government cooperating witness on a host of matters involving organized crime and national security. Sater had also traveled in Moscow with Trump's son, Donald Trump Jr., in the mid-2000s and handed out business cards identifying himself as a “senior adviser” to Donald Trump Sr.

Trump had taken pains to distance himself from Sater. In one sworn deposition, regarding a Trump development in Florida on which Sater had worked, Trump said “I don't know him very well … if he were sitting in the room right now I really wouldn't know what he looked like.”

The emails show Sater and Cohen – friends since their teenage years growing up in Brooklyn – sharing their dreams of a Trump presidency.

In one, made public Monday by The Washington Post and New York Times, Sater writes: “I know how to play it and we will get this done. Buddy, our boy can become President of the USA and we can engineer it.”

And Sater adds, pointedly: “I will get all of Putins team to buy in on this.”

CNN’s Brian Stelter: Newsrooms ‘Need to Keep Making Time to Cover Trump’s Misstatements’

Quote:

CNN’s Brian Stelter ended today’s Reliable Sources by saying that journalists can’t stop calling out President Trump on his misstatements, even if some of them sound a bit “nitpicky.”

He brought up Trump’s claim that “92 percent of the people agree on DACA” and comments he made about Hurricane Irma, and how this “credibility problem” may follow him to the UN for his speech this week.

Stelter said there’s a “pattern” of sloppiness from the White House that has a ripple effect around the world.

He played the clip of Trump’s Charlottesville presser talking about needing the facts first, and concluded, “Until that’s actually true, newsrooms need to keep fact-checking and need to keep making time to cover Trump’s misstatements.”

Donald Trump lied today and said Barack Obama didn't call the families of American soldiers killed in action. Then he was fact-checked in real-time.

Quote:

Today, something similar happened. Nearly two weeks ago, four American soldiers were killed in Niger, and before this afternoon, Trump had said literally nothing about it. Asked about his silence at a White House event, the president said he had not yet contacted the fallen Americans’ families because he wanted “a little time to pass.” He added that he’s written letters to those families, but they haven’t been sent yet.

Let’s note for context that since the ambush that claimed those four servicemen’s lives, Trump has golfed five times.

“I’ve been amazed and disappointed by so much of what this President had said, and his approach to running this country, which seems to be one of just a never ending divisiveness. But his comments today about those who have lost loved ones in times of war and his lies that previous presidents Obama and Bush never contacted their families, is so beyond the pale, I almost don’t have the words.

This man in the Oval Office is a soulless coward who thinks that he can only become large by belittling others. This has of course been a common practice of his, but to do it in this manner–and to lie about how previous Presidents responded to the deaths of soldiers–is as low as it gets. We have a pathological liar in the White House: unfit intellectually, emotionally, and psychologically to hold this office and the whole world knows it, especially those around him every day. The people who work with this President should be ashamed because they know it better than anyone just how unfit he is, and yet they choose to do nothing about it. This is their shame most of all.”
